Why PicShots fits
Tuned for reception halls in Auckland
Designed for banquet-style timelines
PicShots fits a structured timeline of arrival, ceremony, dinner, programme, and dancing. The same QR keeps working across every transition.
Encourage candid table shots
Per-guest shot limits encourage intentional photos, so the gallery feels curated even when 80–200 guests are uploading.
Host moderation before reveal
Keep the gallery hidden during the event. Review and remove anything you don't want public, then reveal when ready.
Setup tips
Setup tips — reception halls in Auckland
1 Print the QR on every table card
Reception halls are essentially one big room — table cards are the highest-yield placement for the QR.
2 Mention the QR before the meal
Reception MCs always do a quick welcome before food is served. That's the perfect spot for a 10-second QR mention.
3 Use the dance floor as a candid prompt
Dancing is where reception halls produce the most candid uploads. A second MC mention before the dance floor opens lifts uploads noticeably.
4 Mention the QR before sunset
The strongest candid window is right before sunset — a single MC reminder can double uploads compared to relying on a static card alone.
